1 sn The name Ichabod (אִי־כָבוֹד) may mean, “Where is the glory?”
2 tn Heb “Who are my relatives, the clan of my father?” The term חַי (khay), traditionally understood as “my life,” is here a rare word meaning “family, kinfolk” (see HALOT 309 s.v. III חַי). The phrase “clan of my father” may be a scribal gloss explaining the referent of this rare word.
3 tn Heb “in the ears of.”
